Real Screen Comics #27

Packed with 52 pages of animated-style fun, this 1949 DC gem spotlights the Fox and the Crow in a wonderfully chaotic street scene — the dapper Fox is being shoved unceremoniously out of a bright red taxi cab while the Crow looks on with mischievous satisfaction nearby. With a city skyline glowing yellow in the background and a open manhole waiting ominously below, the cover sets up the kind of gleeful cartoon trouble that made this series such a delight for mid-century readers.
